Real Genius (1985)

I started mapping out all of the locations I could find from this film in Google Maps, beginning with the "Pacific Tech" college campus - which was filmed at the Occidental & Pomona College campuses in California. That's all I knew. So going off that, I used a combination of Google Street View and Satellite view and a campus map to match up the screenshots. That's why this has been an exciting find, as it seems nobody else has bothered to track down these locations yet. Recently I had a chance to venture out to the locations and snag some photos. There are still a lot of locations I can't find as well, listed below.

The "Pacific Electronics" building is Building #7 at General Atomics at 3550 General Atomics Court, San Diego CA. This facility is closed to the public (thanks to TheAngryIntern).

Dorm Building

Harwood Court building at Pomona College

The interior was used as well for a few shots. However, I believe the hallway with dorms was a set at Hollywood Center Studios. This was also the dorm building in Teen Wolf Too.

Mason Hall was shown in this shot. The Pomona College campus was also used in Teen Wolf Too.

A very special thanks to Mario in Germany for tracking this one down! I'd given up all hope after searching forever in Google Maps and it turns out I was really close the whole time. The house used for filming is of course no longer there, but several landmarks remain - including the culvert under the street.
